Tool Box​Meeting 2

1. Explain

Review the tool taught the previous week. Ask someone to explain it and see if anyone had an experience applying it.​

Look at The Big Picture together. Read it slowly so people have an idea of where they are in the disciple-makingprocess.

2. Model

Read about the One Thing Study in its entirety. It is important to read the complete instruction about each week’s tool. ​

Model what you just read. Demonstrate the tool with the entire group. Have them all do a One Thing Study together. O: Ask them to read the same passage of Scripture. N: Ask a couple to share their one thing. E: Ask them to pray about their one thing.​

Practice what you just modeled. Divide the group into smaller units and move them into breakawaygroups. Direct them to practice with each other what they just read and saw modeled. One person in the group leadsthe rest of the group to do the three steps of a One Thing Study together from the same passage of Scripture. Give everyone a chance to share their comments and pray about them. If time permits, rotate leaders and repeat the process.

3. Debrief

Review what you just practiced. Gather the group back together into one larger group and ask them two key questions; the first question is, “How did it go?” The second question is, “Will someone in the group teach us how to do the tool we just learned without looking at the book?” Ask another person to teach the other tool (FORM conversation) learned the previous week. The group can help those posing as a teacher.​

Encouragethem to apply the tool they learned during the coming week. Remind themyou’ll be asking themabout it next week. Let themknow everyone will make different progress on this each week.

Offer a resource; Don’t Waste Your Life, by John Piper.Tell them each week you’ll be offering a resource for those who want to go deeper and read on their own. Thisis not required reading and will not be discussedin the meetings.​
